This is a crazy time — almost surreal in some ways. Between the impact of the pandemic, and the civil protests throughout the world, many of us are struggling. Struggling to understand. To know. To make sense of it. To grasp it all. And to figure it all out. And, it’s hard. Our emotions are […]
Here’s What I Know: It’s okay to be confused. It’s okay to feel unprepared. And uncomfortable. Perhaps afraid. Maybe even second-guessing yourself. But not okay to feel unworthy. Undesirable. Undeserving. Unloved. And, underestimated. Never let anyone make you feel “Un-Anything.” Because you are more than that. And you deserve more than that. If they do, […]
Here’s What I Know: So look… Stop falling for the bullsh**. Stop accepting the bullsh**. You are worth so much more than that. So stop accepting it. Start trusting and believing that you own the power of change. And start to change it. Change how you think first. So you can change how you behave […]
You are a Liar, a Cheat, and a Thief! Yes, you are. Why? You are a Liar because you tell yourself that you are going to work hard to accomplish your next dream, and you don’t. You convince yourself that you don’t have enough time to get it done. And that you don’t understand the […]
This morning I decided at the last minute that I wanted to get my hair “done.” I wanted it to be shampooed and styled by a professional because they do such a better job than I can. Knowing that my “regular” stylist would be unavailable at the last minute, I decided to go to my […]
Sometimes we just feel “Unpretty” and we cannot explain it. It is just a moment in time that we can actually say “I woke up like this!” And I am not even talking about the way we look physically. I am not talking about having a “bad hair” day, or about our jeans fitting too […]
#MyLifeMatters Sometimes I forget that I really matter. I get so caught up in doing everything for everyone that I don’t do for myself. You see, I get caught up in that “Superwoman” syndrome and focus on the things that I need to do, the things that I failed to do and the things that […]
There are so many of us sleeping with our dreams at night but living with nightmares during the day… We are allowing the quadruple demons of the fear, confusion, doubt and failure to block our paths to happiness. We get caught up in “I shoulda, coulda, woulda” and fail to focus on “I am, I […]
One of the hardest things that I’ve I had to do in my life was to forgive someone who hurt me. Someone who hurt me to the core… Who lit a flame of pain in my spirit and lit a match to my soul… My heart was on fire because of how I was treated […]
Sometimes changing the way you think is just so damn hard. Your heart wants to, but your mind plays tricks on you and makes you believe that you can’t. When you want to be “out” of love with someone because it’s “just time” and you feel like you love them longer, and harder you feel […]
Around my house, we typically wash clothes on the weekend. We have three boys (12, 13, and 15) who still live at home, and they wash their own clothes, so our washing machine is basically working all weekend. As I listened to the “chug chug chug” of our washing machine this weekend I thought about […]
Here’s What I Know: Some people spend their entire lives in search of their purpose. Some people get lost in their struggle for significance. And others wallow in a pond of confusion about the direction that their life should be headed in. It can be so painful when you know that you are not doing […]
You are a Liar! A Cheat! A Thief! Yes, you are. Why? You are a Liar because you tell yourself that you are going to work hard to accomplish your next dream, and you don’t. You convince yourself that you don’t have enough time to get it done. And that you don’t allow yourself to […]
